BIRD WEEKLY – PHOTO CHALLENGE – LONG LEGGED BIRDS

Posted by lisaonthebeach on

On our recent visit to Panama City Beach, Florida, I saw this bird a few times when walking the beach. The thing that stood out to me was his yellow feet. I was able to identify him as a Snowy Egret. He moved quickly and I had a hard time snapping a great photo (especially with occasional overcast skies). But a few came out nicely, and I just love the bird feet photo! 😊

    I love snowy egrets! They always look so clean despite hanging out in the muddy muck. Great photos!💕

    Fabulous captures, Lisa, well done! Birders have a nickname for the Snowy’s yellow feet, they call them ‘golden slippers’. 😍
